About this study

Official title: A Randomized Study to Compare Sizing, Implant Techniques and Hemodynamic Performance Between the Mitroflow and the Carpentier-Edwards Magna Pericardial Tissue Valves in the Aortic Position

The purpose of this study is to compare sizing,implant techniques, and hemodynamics between the Mitroflow Pericardial Aortic Valve and the Edwards Magna Heart Valve.

Read the detailed description

Comparisons of valve types are often made according to labeled valve sizes. There is growing evidence that in the majority of cases the actual sizer and valve dimensions vary from the labeled diameters, which may not be related to any hemodynamically meaningful dimension. The disagreement between the true valve dimensions and the labeled valve size may render comparisons based on labeled size meaningless

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Determine which of the two valve types, the Mitroflow or Magna valve, will demonstrate lower pressure gradients relative to aortic annulus

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Determine which of the two valve types, the Mitroflow or Magna valve, will demonstrate higher ratio of EOA to the aortic annulus area.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mitroflow Aortic Pericardial Heart Valve (CarboMedics) and Carpentier-Edwards Magna Tissue Valve in people with Aortic Valve Disease, run by Sorin Group USA, Inc. at 12 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determine which of the two valve types, the Mitroflow or Magna valve, will demonstrate lower pressure gradients relative to aortic annulus (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jan 2012.
